In the Interest of L.M.W., L.M.W., J.M.L., J.B.L., A.M.L., A.R.P. aka B.G.L., Children

On Appeal from the 314th District Court Harris County, Texas

Trial Court Cause No. 2011-02871J

ORDER

This is an accelerated appeal from a judgment in a suit in which the termination of the parent-child relationship is at issue. Appellant was granted an extension of time to file the brief until October 17, 2012, with a notation that no further extensions would be granted. No brief has been filed. On October 15, 2012, appellant filed a second motion for extension of time requesting an additional twenty-day extension.

Appeals in parental termination cases and child protection cases are to be brought to final disposition within 180 days of the date the notice of appeal is filed. See Tex. R. Jud. Admin. 6.2(a). Accordingly, appellant’s motion is DENIED.

Unless appellant files a brief with the clerk of this court on or before October 29, 2012, the court will dismiss the appeal for want of prosecution. See Tex. R. App. P. 42.3(b).
